Class starts on
adult time
clouds wander
past window
dressing
chin-on-elbow
there's dreary
professor at head
of porcelain desked
aisle murmur of students
didactic voices
pedantic lies [wait
a [sic] second]
starting over
like pull-chain-on-
lawnmower
drilling scheduled--
now listen up
front row,
now fall back
silent,
swaying professor
sways right to left
bites apple on chalk
board SCRATCH
felt image in brain
nails like peeling
off--
this was a dream
like I had sailing
in mother's
womb
this was all
I remembered.
